“Looking Out” is the challenge for today’s City Daily Photo Theme Day.
This was going to be a photo of my barbecued rib lunch at Jeremiah’s BBQ. But as with many a meal, the food arrived. I was hungry; the camera was forgotten. What does this have to do with “looking out?”
When I raised my attention from the plate, I noticed the floor show outside the door. Here’s what I saw looking out: The Girls, shown here, all have names and according to the wait staff, they respond to them. They have a small repertoire of tricks, including a poultry version of “fetch.” They will chase objects tossed their way. (They’re weak on bringing them back.) And they’ll climb stairs. I didn’t see these skills demonstrated. Mostly they scratched and pecked as I watched.
For me this suffices for entertainment in the country. Who needs bright lights and the big city?

This flock of hens seem not to be brooding about the future when fed properly and admired by spectators such as you!
Perhaps they’re just happy they’re not part of someone’s meal! Reminds me of a terrific breakfast spot on Key West that has chickens roaming around the tables outside (although, I’ve never been told they can play fetch. Hmmm…I now feel a bit cheated.). Hope you’re enjoying a nice Thanksgiving weekend!
Great post – I too love the simple things. And chickens are very simple – even when they can fetch. 🙂
Little scenes like this are why we love Sequim!!
Good theme day post.
The girls were a choice, Kay! 🙂
I mean a great choice!…
